Caterpillar Headband & Linky Here

I apologize for being a little MIA these past few days. Getting back into the school / work routine after the Christmas break is tough. I still need to grocery shop, clean house and de-clutter!

My daughter has been bugging me to make some more button heads like the Christmas tree and Santa headband but just haven't had a chance. So this afternoon I sat down and made another!

I followed the same method I used before but this one was a little trickier because of the pattern but I made it work.

Laid out the design, hot glued it and trimmed around it.

Because the design is thinner I decided to turn it over and add some more hot glue to 'stiffen' it. Worked like a charm!

I add felt strips for the antennas and then used the same method here to attach a headband.

On another note I was over at Nest of Posies today﻿ and she had posted a link to a new site Linky Here. It is a brand new blog that is dedicated to listing links to linky parties, giveaways or special promos. I know that a lot of my followers are baby blogs like me and finding as many link parties as you can is crucial to getting your blog out there! Not to mention, what a brilliant idea for a blog!

Very cute idea. I love that kids can help with the project and choose their own color buttons to make the caterpillar. I am going to share your link with our Crafters 4 Kids Facebook page. This is a great idea. Sarah Forhan, Crafters4kids.com Craft Contributor.
